Privacy Policy

Updated December 1st, 2016

Thanks for visiting Stidham Trucking, Inc.’s website. This Privacy Policy describes what information we collect and how it’s used and shared.

If you have any comments or questions about this Privacy Policy, feel free to contact us.

1. Core Principles.

When it comes to your personal information we believe in transparency. We don’t sell your personal information to anyone, ever. We also don’t ask for your personal information unless you provide it to us, or we need it to provide or improve the Services (by navigating the site, contacting us) for you. Lastly, we don’t share your personal information unless you’ve specifically allowed it, or for the very limited purposes described below. Finally, we appreciate that when you use our Services, you trust us with your information, and we take that responsibility very seriously.

2. Collection

When you use the Services, i.e., make purchases onsite and/or choose to contact us, we collect the following information, and use it only as described below:

2.1. Contact Information. This may include your name, email address and phone number. We use this information in the ways you would expect, such as to contact you.

2.2. Third Party Account Information. If you use Third Party Services, such as social media or photo-sharing services, you may provide us with your Third Party Services account information, such as your username (note that we don’t store any passwords you use to access Third Party Services). We may transmit and store such account information, only as needed to provide the Services, and only in accordance with the terms and policies of the Third Party Services. We use MailChimp as our digital newsletter provider. If you choose to sign up for the newsletter service it requires access to your email address. Just remember that such third party’s use of this information will be governed by the terms and privacy policies of the third party.

2.3. Communications With Us. When you send us emails or other communications, we maintain those communications and their contents so that we can resolve your inquiries or otherwise assist you.

2.4. Files You Provide Us. When you use the Services, we store, process and transmit your User Content and information related to your User Content. We process and store such files and information in order to provide the Services.

2.5. Usage Information. We are not actively collecting any information about your activity on and interaction with the Services, such as your IP address, your device or browser type.

2.6. Location Information. Your devices (depending on your settings) may transmit location information to the Services. We don’t use this information at this point in time.

2.7. Cookies & Other Technologies.

This website is using Google Analytics and cookies to measure activity and traffic onsite. This information may be used for advertising purposes to display relevant ads to users who frequent this site. Cookies are a technology used to remember your preferences, keep you safe, and improve and promote the Services.

3. Sharing.

When you use the Services, we may share your information only as described below.

3.2. Following The Law. We may disclose your information to third parties if we determine that such disclosure is reasonably necessary to comply with the law, protect our rights or prevent fraud or abuse of our site. If we were to receive law enforcement or national security requests for information, we strongly believe in privacy and transparency. We scrutinize such requests and challenge vague, over-broad or otherwise unlawful requests. And when legally permitted, we provide our users with notice that their information is being requested. This notice is provided so that you have the opportunity to challenge such requests.

3.3. Business Transfers. If we’re involved in a reorganization, merger, acquisition or sale of our assets, your information may be transferred as part of that deal.

4. Protection.

Stidham Trucking Inc. relies on the protection provided from our host Squarespace: “While no service is completely secure, we have a security team dedicated to keeping your information safe. We employ security measures such as using firewalls to protect against intruders, building redundancies throughout our network (so that if one server goes down, another can cover for it) and testing for and protecting against network vulnerabilities. Payment information is transmitted using HTTPS encryption, and we maintain a PCI DSS certification.”

5. Retention

We’ll retain your personal information for as long as we need it to provide you with the Services. You can ask for your personal information to be deleted at any time by contacting us. On request, we’ll provide you with a copy of your personal information that we maintain. Please note that there may be latency in deleting your personal information, and we may retain your personal information in order to comply with the law, protect our rights, resolve disputes or enforce our agreements.

6. Location

We refer to Squarespace’s Privacy Policy:

”Information that you submit through the Services may be transferred to countries other than where you live. We also may store information locally on the devices you use to access the Services. We also may transfer information to third parties outside the US for processing or to support the Services, and we require them to provide at least the same level of protection for your information as described in this Privacy Policy."

7. Communications

We will only reach out to you in response to contact made by you to us, or if you sign up for our newsletter. If you sign up for the newsletter, you will receive newsletters periodically to your email address. You have the right to opt out should you want to by clicking the “Unsubscribe” button that is located in the footer of the newsletter.

8. Privacy Shield

8.1. Compliance. From Squarespace’s Privacy Policy: “Squarespace complies with the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield Framework as set forth by the U.S. Department of Commerce regarding the collection, use and retention of personal information transferred from the European Union to the United States (‘EU Personal Data’). We’ve certified to the Department of Commerce that we adhere to the Privacy Shield Priniciples and, assuming our certification is approved, you’ll be able to find it here."

9. Modifications

We may modify this Privacy Policy from time to time, and will post the most current version on our site. We’ll notify you in case a modification meaningfully reduces your rights.
